WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES
IMPORTANT The warning light switches on together with a dedicated message and/or acoustic signal when applicable. These
indications are indicative and precautionary and as such must not be considered as exhaustive and/or alternative to the
information contained in the Owner Handbook, which you are advised to read carefully in all cases. Always refer to the
information in this chapter in the event of a failure indication.
IMPORTANT The failure indicators appearing on the display are divided into two categories: very serious and less serious
faults. Serious faults are indicated by a repeated and prolonged warning "cycle". Less serious faults are indicated by a
warning "cycle" with a shorter duration. The display cycle of both categories can be interrupted. The instrument panel
warning light will stay on until the cause of the failure is eliminated.
WARNING LIGHTS ON INSTRUMENT PANEL
Red warning lights
Warning light What it means
INSUFFICIENT BRAKE FLUID / ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE ON
Low brake fluid level
The warning light turns on when the level of the brake fluid in the reservoir falls below the minimum
level, possibly due to a leak in the circuit. Restore the brake fluid level, then check that the warning
light has switched off. If the warning light stays on, contact a Jeep Dealership.
Electric parking brake on
The warning light switches on when the electric parking brake is engaged. In the event of failure, the
warning light flashes for about 10 seconds and then turns off. Release the electric parking brake, then
check that the warning light has switched off. If the warning light stays on, contact a Jeep Dealership.

Warning light What it means
INJECTION/EOBD SYSTEM FAILURE
If the warning light remains on, or it switches on whilst driving, the injection system is not working
properly.
The warning light on constantlysignals a malfunction in the supply/ignition system which could cause
high exhaust emissions, a possible loss of performance, poor driveability and high consumption.
On some versions, the display shows the dedicated message.
The warning light switches off if the malfunction disappears, but it is still stored by the system.
Under these conditions, the vehicle can continue travelling at moderate speed but without demanding
excessive effort from the engine or high speed. Prolonged use of the vehicle with the warning light on
constantly may cause damage.
Contact a Jeep Dealership as soon as possible.
If the warning light flashes, it means that the catalytic converter may be damaged. Release the
accelerator pedal to lower the speed of the engine until the warning light stops flashing.
Continue the journey at moderate speed, trying to avoid driving conditions that may cause further
flashing and contact a Jeep Dealership as soon as possible.

KNOWING THE INSTRUMENT PANEL

AUXILIARY DRIVING
SYSTEMS
BSM (Blind Spot Monitoring)
SYSTEM
(where provided)
The system uses two radar sensors,
located in the rear bumper (one for each
side - see fig. 72) to detect the presence
of vehicles (cars, trucks, motorbikes,
etc.) in the rear side blind spots of the
vehicle.
The system warns the driver about the
presence of cars in the detection area by
lighting up, on the relevant side, the
warning light located on the door mirror
fig. 73, along with an acoustic warning.
When the ignition device is in MAR
position, or when the engine is started,the warning light turns on to signal the
driver that the system is active.
Sensors
The sensors are activated by shifting to
any forward gear at a speed higher than
about 10 km/h, or when reverse is
engaged. The sensors are temporarily
deactivated with vehicle at a standstill
and the gear lever in position P (Park)
(versions with automatic transmission),
or with vehicle at a standstill and electric
parking brake engaged (versions with
manual gearbox).
The detection area of the system covers
about a lane on both sides of the vehicle
(around 3 metres). This area begins from

SAFETY

an obstacle has been detected is
activated, an acoustic warning is emitted
as well. When the acoustic warning is
emitted, theUconnect™volume is
lowered.
"Blind spot alert" function deactivation:
When the system is deactivated ("Blind
spot alert" mode at "OFF"), the BSM or
RCP systems will not emit neither
acoustic nor visual warnings. The BSM
system will store the operating mode
running when the engine was switched
off: each time the engine is started, the
operating mode stored previously will be
recalled and used.
FORWARD COLLISION WARNING
PLUS SYSTEM
69) 70) 71) 72)
33) 34) 35) 36) 37) 38) 39) 40) 41)
It consists of a radar located behind the
front bumper fig. 74 and a camera
located in the middle of the windscreen
fig. 75.
In the event of an imminent collision the
system intervenes by automatically
braking the car to prevent the impact or
reduce its effects.The system may brake slightly to warn
the driver when a potential frontal
accident is detected. Signals and limited
braking are intended to allow the driver
to react promptly, in order to prevent or
reduce the effects of a potential
accident.
Versions equipped with Stop/Start system:
at the end of the automatic braking, the
Stop/Start system will activate as
described in paragraph "Stop/Start
system" of this chapter.
Versions equipped with manual
transmission: at the end of the automatic
braking, the engine may stall and turn
off, unless the clutch pedal is pressed.
Versions equipped with automatic
transmission: at the end of the braking,
the last stored gear is engaged. The
vehicle may restart a few seconds after
the automatic stop.IMPORTANT After the car is stopped,
the brake callipers may be locked for
about 2 seconds for safety reasons.
Make sure you press the brake pedal if
the vehicle moves slightly forwards.
Engagement/disengagement
The Forward Collision Warning Plus
system can be deactivated (and then
reactivated) via theUconnect™system.
The system can also be deactivated by

SAFETY

As soon as a speed threshold of 8 km/h
is maintained for more than
10 continuous seconds (or
50 discontinuous seconds), with driver
side seat belt or the passenger side seat
belt (with occupant seated) unfastened,
an acoustic signal is activated
simultaneously with warning light
flashing for about 105 seconds.
When this cycle of warnings is activated
it will stay on for its entire length
(regardless of the car speed) or until the
seat belts are fastened again.When the reverse is engaged, during the
cycle of warnings, the acoustic warning is
deactivated and the
warning light
turns on constantly. The cycle of
warnings will be reactivated as soon as
speed exceeds 8 km/h again.
Operation of rear seat belt icons
The icons are shown on the display
(fig. 84 versions with multifunction
display or fig. 85 versions with
reconfigurable multifunction display)
after a few seconds have elapsed since
when the ignition device is turned to
MAR.
The icons turn off at least 30 seconds
after the doors have been closed or after
a change in the seat belt fastening
status.
83J0A0330C
84J0A0240C
118
SAFETY

The icons shown on the display indicate:A: rear left seat belt;B: rear central seat belt;C: rear right seat belt.
NOTE On versions equipped with
multifunction display, if a seat belt is
unfastened, the
icon lights up.
The icons are displayed according to the
corresponding seat belts in the rear
seats, and stay on for about 30 seconds
from the last seat belt status change:
if the seat belt is fastenedthe
corresponding icon will be green;
if the seat belt is unfastenedthe
corresponding icon will be red.
If a rear seat belt is unfastened, an
acoustic warning (3 "beeps") will beactivated along with the relevant icon
lighting up in the display.
Furthermore the icons will light up again
for 90 seconds each time one of the rear
doors is closed.
The icon will turn green after the
corresponding seat belt has been
fastened.
The rear seat icons will go out, regardless
of the state of the belt (red icon or green
icon), approximately 30 seconds after the
last signal.
IMPORTANT NOTES
As far as the rear seats are concerned,
the SBR system will only indicate
whether the seat belts are unfastened
(red icon) or fastened (green icon), not
the presence of any passengers.
The warning lights/icons are all off if all
seat belts (front and rear) are fastened
when the ignition device is at MAR.
For the rear seats, the icons will activate
a few seconds after the ignition device
has been turned to MAR, regardless of
the status of the seat belts (even if the
seat belts are all fastened).
All the warning lights/icons will come on
when at least one belt changes from
fastened to unfastened status or vice
versa.
PRETENSIONERS
84) 85) 86) 87)43)
The vehicle is equipped with front seat
belt pretensioners, which draw back the
seat belts by several centimetres in the
event of a strong frontal impact. This
guarantees the perfect adherence of the
seat belts to the occupant's bodies before
the retention action begins.
It is evident that the pretensioners have
been activated when the belt withdraws
toward the retractor.
This vehicle is also equipped with a
second pretensioner (fitted in the kick
plate area). Its activation is signalled by
the shortening of the metal cable.
A slight discharge of smoke may be
produced during the activation of the
pretensioner which is not harmful and
does not indicate any fire hazard.
The pretensioner does not require any
maintenance or lubrication: any changes
to its original conditions will invalidate
its efficiency.
If, due to unusual natural events (floods,
sea storms, etc.), the device has been
affected by water and/or mud, contact a
Jeep Dealership to have it replaced.
